Quarra Vieth-Salesforce Integration

Overview

Quarra Stone wants to automate the creation of project folders in their Vieth file management system whenever an opportunity is created (or closed-won) in Salesforce. This eliminates manual folder setup and ensures project files are consistently organized from the moment a deal enters the pipeline.

The integration is in the scoping phase as of December 2025, with a kickoff call planned for the following week.

Technical Approach

The integration will use a lightweight Node.js function as middleware sitting between Salesforce and the Vieth server:

  1. A Salesforce trigger fires on opportunity creation (and optionally on Closed Won).
  2. The Node.js function receives the event via API call from Salesforce.
  3. The function makes a second API call to Vieth to create the appropriate project folder in the correct location.

This is a relatively straightforward two-sided API integration. The primary coordination requirement is obtaining the correct API permissions on the Vieth side — Vieth needs to grant access for the middleware to write to their file structure.

"We'll fire with a little Node JavaScript function and what it'll do is it'll create the folder and the file and everything… it's an API call on both sides, and it's a little Node.js function that's going to run in the middle." — Mark Hope

Trigger Points

Two folder-creation events were discussed:

Salesforce Event Vieth Action
Opportunity Created Create initial project folder
Opportunity Closed Won Create project/delivery folder

Lincoln confirmed both are feasible from Vieth's side; the specifics will be finalized during the scoping call.
